Joint
service projects requested
John Hennessy of the evening club visited us last week to
discuss the possibility of working together on service projects in the town and
village.
John pointed to the Centennial Project at the
Conservation area and the bathrooms under the gazebo in Clift Park as examples
of successful projects we have completed working together. John suggested possibly appointing a
liaison to work together to identify and coordinate such projects locally.
While John did not have one specific project in mind, he
offered many examples of projects that could be accomplished together. Some examples include:
n
Charlie
Major Nature Trail Clean-up
n
Peter
Vargason Trail work (at Butters Farms)
n
Dug-Out
project at Austin Park baseball field
n
High
School and Middle School court yard projects
n
Conservation
Area clean up or other project
n
Site
work at Reynolds property
n
Skaneateles
Community Center Atrium/Entranceway site work
n
Skaneateles
Lake water quality project
n
Adopt
pocket park along outlet between Old Stone Mill and Genesee Street
n
Adopt-a-Highway
John Paddock spoke in support of such an arrangement and
reminded the group that we are a family of Rotarians and should work together
as much and as often as we can.
Club Secretary John Rooney, who also serves as Chair of
our Service Committee will follow up with John Hennessy and report back on the
progress of any future projects.
